1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION The SILBUS repeater type SILBUS-A2WCCT2 is an explosion protected DIN rail-mounting module that is used to increase the distance in a Dupline or SILBUS network. The repeater can also be used as a ‘power booster’ in a section of a network that has many line powered field devices connected to the network.
Figure 1 Typical drift belt installation 3.2 PROVIDING GALVANIC ISOLATION WITH LIGHTNING PROTECTION The repeater type SILBUS-A2WCCT2 has inherent segregation and galvanic isolation between the primary network port and the secondary network port that is useful in filtering the effects of lightning induced surges that may be present on a primary non-intrinsically safe SILBUS network.
4 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS The repeater type SILBUS-A2WCCT2 does not require any operator action to operate once it has been installed within an IP54 host enclosure and wired correctly. The repeater introduces a delay of one Dupline / SILBUS scan when transferring channel pulses from the secondary network to the primary network.
5 TERMINATIONS AND CONNECTIONS All connections to the repeater are via cage-clamp terminals around the perimeter and near the front of the DIN rail mounting enclosure, these terminals can accommodate up to 4mm conductors. There are 6 possible connections to the repeater; these are shown in the following tables and diagrams: 12V I.S.
The table above shows the secondary SILBUS network port connections. 6 CERTIFICATION The repeater type SILBUS-A2WCCT2 has been awarded IECEx certification under IECEx TSA 07.0002X, Ex ia I, as part of the Dupline / SILBUS system. The certification requires that the A2WCCT2 be mounted within a host enclosure that provides a minimum ingress protection of IP54 (IP55 for Queensland Australia).
7 SOFTWARE REVISION AND DISPLAY The software version of the repeater type SILBUS-A2WCCT2 will vary as its functionality is improved at the request of our customers. The software version is given in the format ZPR176-n, where ZPR176 represents the product code and n represents the revision level.
